What we do

Our team at Nick Wallace Culinary (NWC), based out of Jackson, Mississippi, is all about place. The places where we cook, the places where our ingredients come from, and the places where diners eat. NWC is led by Executive Chef Nick Wallace, whose own Mississippi roots and classical French training coalesce into his unique Modern Mississippian cuisine. We're deeply rooted in our Mississippi homes, and in that spirit, we advocate for the distribution of home-grown and farm-raised products. We are a resource for local farmers, for regional chefs and restaurateurs, and for individual families who are passionate, as we are, about cooking food that is close to home.

Meet Chef Nick Wallace

“I grew up on the farm. Off in the woods, walking through the blueberry bushes, shoes off. I ate dirt as a kid. When I tell you I was living off the soil, I was living off the soil. Because I know what it tastes like.”
